Chapter 958: The True Identity of Zhu Xiangu

Yes.

The property management described the girl's appearance as similar to Zhu Xiangu, and she just moved in these past two days.

The place where she lives is not far from the Shi Family.

"What is the house number?"

The property management staff shook their head: "I'm sorry, Ms. Shi, I cannot tell you this. Although that girl is a tenant and not an owner, we still cannot disclose others' privacy at will."

Nianyin glared: "That woman is a swindler, a fugitive wanted online. We arrived a step early, and the police will follow shortly. If the fugitive escapes because of you, you will be an accomplice."

This sentence worked well; the staff member did not hesitate anymore and immediately informed them: "Building 16, Unit 1, Room 201."

The two rushed to Building 16, but they were still a step too late.

The door was wide open, and the room was empty, but there was a note on the coffee table in the living room, with four large, flamboyant characters written on it: See you later!

"Damn it."

Nianyin slammed her fist onto the coffee table: "Is she provoking me? I must catch her with my own hands!"

Now there is no doubt that this woman is targeting Shi Youxuan.

They have already clashed twice, yet they haven't even seen what the enemy looks like; it is too much of a failure.

The two walked around the house and checked it carefully—this is not Zhu Xiangu's lair.

Just like at the Sheng Family residential area, this was also just a temporary stop, or perhaps not even a stop, because the house was clean and there were no useful clues to be found.

Shi Youxuan and Nianyin went out to check the surveillance footage at the property management office again and contacted the landlord.

Even the most cunning fox will reveal flaws; by visiting a few more places and asking a few more people, perhaps there will be unexpected gains.

The surveillance footage was pulled up, but there was no sign of the girl at all.

She did not even appear on the screen.

"Impossible, this is impossible!"

The staff in the Monitoring Room were incredibly surprised. Without needing Shi Youxuan and Nianyin to urge them, they repeatedly reviewed the surveillance footage from the past few days.

They muttered to themselves while watching: "Is it haunted? Can there really be ghosts or gods in this world? I even saw her walk into the residential area this morning, and I was joking about it with a colleague at the time. How could she suddenly disappear?"

Nianyin pulled Shi Youxuan out: "Sister, don't pay attention to those fools. This is just a small trick; it can be done with a computer."

Shi Youxuan: "Can you do it?"

Nianyin: "I can. What's difficult about this? Not only can I erase people from surveillance, but if you want, I can add a few more people into the surveillance footage at any time without any problem."

Shi Youxuan did not respond.

She was not interested in these small tricks that could tamper with surveillance.

But she was thoughtful about Nianyin's words.

After a long while, she spoke again: "Nianyin, do you think it's possible that this person has ties to the Ji Family?"

"It's possible, but it wouldn't be Mother. Mother wouldn't deign to play god or ghost in such trivial matters." Although she was expelled from the Ji Family by Ji Yingjie, she would never, and would not allow anyone else to, speak a single bad word about Ji Yingjie.

Shi Youxuan: "Think about it, who else in the Ji Family could it be?"

Nianyin counted on her fingers, one by one.

Nianci?

Impossible.

Nianci is neither tall nor thin; her figure doesn't match, and besides, she has no motive or reason to do this.

Elder Lian?

The figure matches, but the age does not, and Elder Lian has no motive or reason to do this either.

She screened all the capable women in the Ji Family, but none of them matched.

But many of Zhu Xiangu's characteristics are inseparable from the Ji Family. It is too difficult; who exactly is this woman?

They contacted the landlord, but still gained nothing.

The landlord said the tenant contacted him online, and he had never even seen the person!

There was an ID card used to rent the house, but it was fake and had no value at all.

……

Marsh.

The abandoned Underground Castle.

A dim light was on in the room, and the furnishings inside were very simple.

A table and a chair; three heavy wooden boxes were placed side by side against the wall, with simple bedding spread on top of the boxes, which served as a bed.

Two spirit tablets were placed side by side on the table, and a young man was kneeling in front of the tablets to pay his respects.

"Father, today is the anniversary of your death. I swear here to you that I will definitely find the Ji Family Treasure, bring down the Sheng Family, and avenge you."

"If your spirit is in heaven, you must bless your son, and bless the Zhu Family to flourish and bring glory to our ancestors in my hands!"

The young man was tall and thin, with a shaved head and six dots on the top of his head from receiving incense vows.

His name is Zhu Qingxiang; he is Zhu Yiwen's eldest son, and also Zhu Xiangu.

For the past few years, he has spent most of his time in Jiangzhou.

He was lurking in Shanlin Temple as a monk, which is why Ji Yingjie never found him during her several trips to Jiangzhou.

In the past, his wings were not yet fully grown and he could do nothing, but the thought of revenge had been lingering in his heart, and he never dared to forget it!

Sheng Hanyu went to L Country to mine for diamonds; this news made him both angry and happy.

He was angry because if it weren't for Sheng Hanyu, this world's largest diamond mine would definitely be mined by his own family now; how could it be someone else's turn?

He was happy because he believed he had found an opportunity to take advantage of this to make the Sheng Family restless and seize back what belonged to the Zhu Family amidst the chaos.

He has a feminine appearance, and with a little makeup, he looks very much like a woman, making it hard for others to be suspicious. Thus, he disguised himself as Zhu Xiangu and has been lurking in the Sheng Family residential area for some time.

Sheng Jiang usually likes to show off his father, his son, and his daughter-in-law in the residential area.

He had mentioned the matter of the diary in the Sheng Family old residence unintentionally, though he himself did not remember it.

Zhu Qingxiang snuck into the old residence, photographed the old master's diary to study it in detail, and then picked out the most valuable passage to tell Sheng Jiang, which successfully tricked him into believing it without a doubt.

Before encountering Shi Youxuan, everything in the plan had gone very smoothly.

Unfortunately, after meeting her, things changed.

There was also a key person here—Nianyin, which was something he had not thought of before.

But after the Fairy's identity was exposed, he realized that Nianyin had to be eliminated; if that woman was not removed, his own identity was in danger of being exposed at any time.

Because many of his skills were learned from the Ji Family, Nianyin would see through him very quickly.

So he repeated his old tricks, approaching Gu Zhihao and using psychology and bribing people at the lottery station to play a little trick, which made Gu Zhihao believe him implicitly and follow his every word.

It was just a pity that although Nianyin was driven out of the Shi Family, he revealed his true colors even faster.

That woman Shi Youxuan was smarter than he had imagined.

From the moment Zhu Qingxiang was born, his fate had already been determined—to carry on the family line and inherit the Zhu Family!

He had never seen his mother's face since he was small, and from the time he became sensible, he knew he was different from others; his father was a man who did big things and could not often play with him.

His father also had many enemies, and he could not even return home to live with his father, because doing so would very likely result in him being killed by those enemies.

He thought his mother was dead, as that was what his father had said.

His father had married a new woman, and those who served him all said the new mother could not tolerate him, so he could not return home to live and could only live outside.

Living outside with him was his younger brother.

His younger brother Zhu Qingrui was four years younger than him, and they shared the same father but different mothers.

Just like him, his younger brother had also never seen his own mother.
